| Message | DSP, I agree. However, this is a phone service. Why do you want the phone service run by the government? |

| Message | Because everyone gets it for free, or I suppose if you count taxes as a cost, are getting it a much, much lower rate then they would otherwise. |

| Message | Not if there is competition. Each one will offer more services and have better pricing. The government will slow down the technology adopted in telephone usage. Let the private sector fund technology, not the government. |
| Date | 07:19:54, April 29, 2008 CET | From | Anti-Federalists of Free Sekowo | To | Debating the CP.0094.2567 Telephone Competition Bill |
| Message | We agree. Competition, and privatization should be encouraged. The people should have a choice. |
